Wanderlust Found - Yemen

The Wanderlust Found is a video and photography site by a collective called Noavi. They recently launched a video titled Yemen is a Feeling which looks at a side of Yemen we don't get to see or read about in the news.

It's a beautiful video accompanied with the following words to describe the feelings it's trying to invoke.

Yemen is a feeling / An ancient culture / That has perpetuated for generations / With vices + virtues / With style + grace / Where generosity is second nature

Yemen is a feeling / Of welcomed immersion of adaptability / Where new generations are thriving + a bit bravery can lead to breathtaking beauty / In villages that time forgot / What you find / May surprise you

Yemen is a feeling / Of wisdom over centuries / Of ingenuity + determination / Being welcomed into someone’s home / When food is shared / Where detachment has its benefits / When we stop taking electricity for granted / When nature chooses to connect with us

Yemen is a feeling / Of affection / Of simple pleasures / A quality of life + joy / Of self-sufficiency / Exploration + wonder / The things that unite us / Are stronger that those that divide us

The boxes are lined with woven fabric sewn in Yemen and every image is embossed. Each box costs USD 110 and a portion of all sales will be donated to a Yemeni girl’s scholarship fund to attend university. You can purchase the photographs here.
